In a recent interview with Yahoo! Sports, Rousey made it pretty clear that she feels if the UFC brings Cris “Cyborg” Justino in, that she could end up killing women’s MMA in the promotion.

Rousey feels that Cyborg has been a steroid user “for so long that she’s not even a woman anymore. She’s an ‘it.'”

“If she comes to the UFC and I beat the (expletive) out of her and then I retire and become an action movie star, then the UFC is still going to be stuck with her,” Rousey said. “The division could die. She could ruin the whole sport.

“Even thought it’s a fight a lot of people want to see, even if I beat the living crap out of her, it won’t be good for the sport because then she’d still be in the UFC.”

Rousey and Alexis Davis are currently booked for the July UFC 175 co-main event role during International Fight Week in Las Vegas. Many had Rousey pegged for a possible fight with Gina Carano, but that is currently unavailable because Carano has not signed with the promotion.

“I’d be honored to fight a competitor like Gina, who is an example of what real respect and honor is in the cage,” she said. “I really think with Cyborg taking all of those steroids and hormones and then going into the cage, it’s like going in with a weapon. It’s certainly very negligent, but it’s also criminal. I believe, it really is. Promoting her would be promoting the act and I think it would be wrong in every way.”

Cyborg previously tested positive for an anabolic steroid that she cited was used for cutting weight and not building up her muscle mass. Rousey, though, doesn’t feel that is an excuse – or the right one. Cyborg was fined and suspended for a year by the California Athletic Commission for the failed test.

“I think it should be like the Olympics,” she said, in reference to failed drug tests. “If you (expletive) up once, you’r not going to the (expletive) Olympics. There should be a zero tolerance policy where if you’re caught doing anything, you should be done forever.”

guys I will tell you now do not be surprised when the next season of TUF is announced with the coaches of Rousey and Carano. That is if Rousey gets by Davis, heck I would not be surprised if they announce it right after that fight. I know Rousey has said she would never do the show but with it being Gina and a shit ton of money I am sure they could lure her back.

they may be waiting out her Strikeforce contract so they can bring her in purley on a UFC contract. Dana has had nothing but great words about the meeting with Gina and is expecting to have some news soon, so they are playing it close to the chest kind of thing.

Unless Gina has stepped up her game–and that seems unlikely since she’s not fighting–it wouldn’t be a competitive fight with Rousey. Gina was a competitive fighter during the early stages of women’s MMA, but the sport has already passed her by. Rousey has comparable striking, and there’s no way Gina competes with Rousey on the mat. Rousey wins by arm bar in seconds.

I don’t think Gina could do it right now, seeing as last time she tried to come back she said she hadn’t been in the gym at all training in a yr and a half, so I doubt she has this time either. She’d need at least another yr to get back into a camp and train, then she’s looking at what 4 yrs out of the cage?
